Chapter Text

First paragraph, first sentence.

"You're welcome." said Luna in a dream-like voice. The Hall was riddled with the snorts of people trying to hold their laughter.

"SILENCE!" demanded Umbridge forgetting her sickly sweet voice.

"Now Delores." said Madam Bones. "You can't expect them to just sit there and listen to this, do you? Let them voice their opinions, it will make the reading more, let's say, 'attention holding.'"

"She's got that right." said Fred.

"Imagine, just sitting here and listening to Harry's boring life." said George with a smirk.

"We need to spice things up a bit!" both twins said with a laugh.


First paragraph, end of paragraph.

"Wow, Harry, you've got awfully boring relatives" said Lee Jordan with a big grin.

"Makes us appreciate our family a lot more." said Ron with a look towards the twins and Percy, who was sitting beside the Minister. But he didn't look at Percy for very long.


Second paragraph, first sentence, first comma.

"I knew a Grunning once," said Bathilda Bagshot who had just entered the Great Hall and sat down near Hagrid's seat at the teacher's table. "I don't think it's the same one though. He died almost a hundred years ago."

"Hello Bathilda, I'm glad you could stop by." said Dumbledore with a smile.

"I didn't realize that you were doing this, I came by to take you up on the offer for a cup of tea for old time's sake, I always did have impeccable timing." she said with a smile.


Second paragraph. end of first sentence.

"Most definitely not him. Hardly would do anything if magic wasn't involved." she said shaking her head quickly.


Second paragraph, third sentence, first comma.

The entire school erupted in laughter.

"Don't they sound like people Romance Novels are made from?" said a seventh year Slytherin wiping tears from her eyes.

"Walrus and Horsie siting in a tree! K...I...S...S...I..N...G!!" sang the twins and Lee at the top of their lungs to the applause of the school.


Second paragraph. Rest of third sentence.

"She never changed, that's no surprise." muttered Snape.


Second paragraph, fourth sentence, eighth word.

Harry however was confused.

"Wait a minute, did that just call Dudley small?" he asked loudly to the twins and Ron. The Weasely children and Hagrid both laughed. The others weren't sure what was so funny.


End of second paragraph.

"That's not right, the best guy in the world is right here." said Fred gently patting Harry's back. The people who knew Harry nodded, including a few of the teachers. Harry quickly blushed.
